Patrick Dempsey takes Yahoo mic, interviews Ellen Pompeo

Patrick Dempsey takes over the microphone during this D23 Expo interview in September 2022 with Yahoo Entertainment's Kevin Polowy. About two minutes into discussing "Grey's Anatomy" and the upcoming movie "Disenchanted," the "McDreamy" actor begins his own interview with Ellen Pompeo, riffing on everything from a fictional Las Vegas show to Martha Stewart — "I don't know who's training her but they're good."

People don’t understand how iconic this is!

Patrick did a much better job interviewing than the actual interviewer 😂 …and he obviously knew it!

[shirleynitka]

they adore each other, for real. They both light up when they see each other. That's what the show needs. Mer hasn't had this since they killed him off. Wrong move Greys. They were the show.

The fact that he kept looking at her before she went up to them is so amazing

The real interview started when Ellen came on screen and Patrick took over. The interaction between them felt like a HUGE hug! Love those two so much!

[jennypettersson]

Love this ! And Ellen is so on point, when that person left the show it’s just not the same. Something’s missing.
